Black pepper is one of the first to go in any kitchen. Top off your empty (and lonely) grinder with punchy peppercorns straight from Zanzibar.

Off the coast of Tanzania there's a chain of tropical islands. There, farmers pick little green peppercorns from long, curling vines. Once they've dried, they're packed up and sent to your kitchen. And we can't get enough of this stuff, seriously. You know the meal's about to be amazing when you hear the familiar twist and crackle of the pepper grinder coming from the kitchen.

Ingredient Integrity

Spice supply chains are historically opaque and hard to trace. By working directly with the farmers, Burlap & Barrel stands behind their product and growing practices. Burlap & Barrel's products do not contain ingredients on Hive's No Good, Dirty Rotten list of banned and watch list ingredients.

Responsible Production

Responsible production is written into Burlap & Barrel's articles of incorporation, which specify "connecting farmers to high-value markets, helping them access a larger share of the product value chain, and establishing long-term, mutually-beneficial trade relationships." They pay 2-10x commodity prices, enabling their farmers to expand their businesses. Plus, a sample from every lot of every spice is tested by accredited 3rd-party laboratory, for microbiological pathogens and vectors, including E. coli, Salmonella, total/aerobic plate count, and yeast & mold. If necessary, they sterilize with steam sterilization or an ETO treatment. All of their spices exceed the safety requirements from the FDA and State of California. Burlap & Barrel test some of their products for heavy metals and pesticide residues.

Clean Packaging

Burlap & Barrel's packaging is zero waste: every jar is fully recyclable, as are their gift boxes.

Leading Change

Burlap & Barrel works to bring positive social impact both in the areas where they source and at home for their local organizations. As a Public Benefits Corporation, they publish annual Impact Reports that share updates on their social mission.

How it does good

Burlap & Barrel sources their spices directly from farmer cooperatives and small farms. They visit each of these farms, spending time with the employees to learn about the economic, social, and environmental implications of their methods. Every decision they make is fueled by their goal to end inequality and exploitation in the food industry. They do this by connecting small farms to high-value markets, educating consumers about the impact of product traceability, and sourcing unique foods that are grown using biodynamic and organic techniques.

How to Use

Grind fresh into butter and cheese, and drizzle over your cacio e pepe.

Recycling

The glass jar and metal lid are curbside recyclable, once separated. The plastic shrink band is recyclable through TerraCycle by following our special instructions.

These are general guidelines for broadly-recyclable materials. Check with your local recycler to confirm what they take.
